THE BRITISH EMPIRE
FUTURE CREATRESS SPIRIT OF CO-OPERATION. Prsss Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. VANCOUVER, January 7. “ The British Empire is the youngest tiling in the world and the most potent, and it stands at the dawn of a. great new destiny,” declared Mr L. S. Amery, addressing the Canadian Club at Victoria to-day. He said that while the last Imperial deference had formally accorded all the -Sat ions in the Empire a place of absolute equality, one with another, the future greatness of the Empire would not lie along lines of separate development.’ Mr Amery declared that a future much greater than the past must bo built up on lies of complete co-operation, both in business and in spirit. “We shall develop our methods of co-operation as we go along,” lie predicted. . He marvelled at Canada’s economic growth, and declared that the prosperity of the United States was due to a policy of economic unity. If the same spirit of co-operation were evinced in the Empire, there was no reason why it could not “match, and more' than watch, that of our great neighbor.”
